Guess the spot

[scatman]

OMG not another lake, Scat! And since some of you guys are targeting me for harassment putting up pics to places I have been I am going to take a WAG at it being the West end of Riddle Lake after we saw the big white birds Course you may not be that kind of guy. You ARE a lake guy though. How many of the xxx lakes in YNP have you been to on your quest to visit 100%?

No, it isn't Riddle Lake. This lake is smaller than Riddle Lake.

I need to sit down and determine how many more lakes I need to get to. I know it is more than I originally thought by just looking at the maps. If I had planned my previous trips over the years a little better, I could have knocked a few more off. As it is, now I will have to go back into areas that I have been before to get to them.

Hint: This lake has no human trail to it.

As it is, now I will have to go back into areas that I have been before to get to them.

That is what I call a High Class Problem

That is what I call a High Class Problem

I just did a quick count and if if my numbers are right, I have visited 47 (taken a picture) of the Lakes in Yellowstone. I still have 37 to get to. Of those 37, seven are by the road so they will be easy. It looks like there are three more that are on a trail within a mile of the road that should be easy to get to. The last 27 have varying degrees of remoteness, some look fairly straight forward, others will take multi-day trips. One is in a bear management area so I will have to work that problem. Plateau Lake looks like the toughest. Should have reached it on my hike last June up on the Madison Plateau.

 

[Outdoor_Fool]

Mirror Lake?

 

[scatman]

Correct @Outdoor_Fool ! You're up.

 

[Outdoor_Fool]

Since we're on a lake theme...

 

[slc_dan]

while we can't answer this one, consider doing KSL's version.

[Outdoor_Fool]

I'm a little surprised that there are no hits on this. I'll wait until tomorrow and put another up.

 

[River]

If you did this at a lake in Yellowstone...

 

[Outdoor_Fool]

My internet connection is not allowing me to upload a new photo. I'll try again later or if someone else wants to jump in, go ahead.
And thanks River, for dropping some solid hints.

 

[scatman]

From River's clue I'd say Sportsman Lake. Unfortunately that is one of the lakes in Yellowstone I haven't gone to yet.

 

[Ben]

If you did this at a lake in Yellowstone...

why do you know all of these? you know i can't feel good about knowing the answer when you tell me what it is.

Do we need to rename this thread "Guess the spot in Yellowstone"? Here's my guess, again:

cmon @Nick it's only been 7 straight Yellowstone spots.

 

[River]

cmon @Nick it's only been 7 straight Yellowstone spots.

We had to take a break from the 7000 Utah spots before that.

It is in Yellowstone and it is on Nick's list. Posted because its name is similar to someone here.

Artemisia Geyser!

Yup! Thought of Art when I saw the sign for that one.
